fbcon: always restore the old font data in fbcon_do_set_font()

2026-02-06T15:40:10Z

commit 00d6a284fcf3fad1b7e1b5bc3cd87cbfb60ce03f upstream. Commit a5a923038d70 (fbdev: fbcon: Properly revert changes when vc_resize() failed) started restoring old font data upon failure (of vc_resize()). But it performs so only for user fonts. It means that the "system"/internal fonts are not restored at all. So in result, the very first call to fbcon_do_set_font() performs no restore at all upon failing vc_resize(). This can be reproduced by Syzkaller to crash the system on the next invocation of font_get(). It's rather hard to hit the allocation failure in vc_resize() on the first font_set(), but not impossible. Esp. if fault injection is used to aid the execution/failure. It was demonstrated by Sirius: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffffffffffff8 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD cb7b067 P4D cb7b067 PUD cb7d067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN CPU: 1 PID: 8007 Comm: poc Not tainted 6.7.0-g9d1694dc91ce #20 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.15.0-1 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:fbcon_get_font+0x229/0x800 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcon.c:2286 Call Trace: con_font_get drivers/tty/vt/vt.c:4558 [inline] con_font_op+0x1fc/0xf20 drivers/tty/vt/vt.c:4673 vt_k_ioctl drivers/tty/vt/vt_ioctl.c:474 [inline] vt_ioctl+0x632/0x2ec0 drivers/tty/vt/vt_ioctl.c:752 tty_ioctl+0x6f8/0x1570 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:2803 vfs_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:51 [inline] ...

fbdev: fbcon: Properly revert changes when vc_resize() failed

2026-02-06T15:40:09Z

commit a5a923038d70d2d4a86cb4e3f32625a5ee6e7e24 upstream. fbcon_do_set_font() calls vc_resize() when font size is changed. However, if if vc_resize() failed, current implementation doesn't revert changes for font size, and this causes inconsistent state. syzbot reported unable to handle page fault due to this issue [1]. syzbot's repro uses fault injection which cause failure for memory allocation, so vc_resize() failed. This patch fixes this issue by properly revert changes for font related date when vc_resize() failed.

fbcon: Avoid using FNTCHARCNT() and hard-coded built-in font charcount

2026-01-19T12:12:00Z

commit a1ac250a82a5e97db71f14101ff7468291a6aaef upstream. For user-provided fonts, the framebuffer layer is using a magic negative-indexing macro, FNTCHARCNT(), to keep track of their number of characters: #define FNTCHARCNT(fd) (((int *)(fd))[-3]) For built-in fonts, it is using hard-coded values (256). This results in something like the following: map.length = (ops->p->userfont) ? FNTCHARCNT(ops->p->fontdata) : 256; This is unsatisfactory. In fact, there is already a `charcount` field in our virtual console descriptor (see `struct console_font` inside `struct vc_data`), let us use it: map.length = vc->vc_font.charcount; Recently we added a `charcount` field to `struct font_desc`. Use it to set `vc->vc_font.charcount` properly. The idea is: - We only use FNTCHARCNT() on `vc->vc_font.data` and `p->fontdata`. Assume FNTCHARCNT() is working as intended; - Whenever `vc->vc_font.data` is set, also set `vc->vc_font.charcount` properly; - We can now replace `FNTCHARCNT(vc->vc_font.data)` with `vc->vc_font.charcount`; - Since `p->fontdata` always point to the same font data buffer with `vc->vc_font.data`, we can also replace `FNTCHARCNT(p->fontdata)` with `vc->vc_font.charcount`. In conclusion, set `vc->vc_font.charcount` properly in fbcon_startup(), fbcon_init(), fbcon_set_disp() and fbcon_do_set_font(), then replace FNTCHARCNT() with `vc->vc_font.charcount`. No more if-else between negative-indexing macros and hard-coded values. Do not include in fbcon_rotate.c and tileblit.c, since they no longer need it. Depends on patch "Fonts: Add charcount field to font_desc".

console: Delete unused con_font_copy() callback implementations

2026-01-19T12:12:00Z

commit 7a089ec7d77fe7d50f6bb7b178fa25eec9fd822b upstream. Recently in commit 3c4e0dff2095 ("vt: Disable KD_FONT_OP_COPY") we disabled the KD_FONT_OP_COPY ioctl() option. Delete all the con_font_copy() callbacks, since we no longer use them. Mark KD_FONT_OP_COPY as "obsolete" in include/uapi/linux/kd.h, just like what we have done for PPPIOCDETACH in commit af8d3c7c001a ("ppp: remove the PPPIOCDETACH ioctl").

fbdev: Add bounds checking in bit_putcs to fix vmalloc-out-of-bounds

2025-12-06T21:08:15Z

[ Upstream commit 3637d34b35b287ab830e66048841ace404382b67 ] Add bounds checking to prevent writes past framebuffer boundaries when rendering text near screen edges. Return early if the Y position is off-screen and clip image height to screen boundary. Break from the rendering loop if the X position is off-screen. When clipping image width to fit the screen, update the character count to match the clipped width to prevent buffer size mismatches. Without the character count update, bit_putcs_aligned and bit_putcs_unaligned receive mismatched parameters where the buffer is allocated for the clipped width but cnt reflects the original larger count, causing out-of-bounds writes.
